Fiat 500 - Video tutorial

Model: Fiat 500 - Years 2007-2022
Part: Seat
Operation: To lower the rear seats of the Fiat 500.

Let's briefly see in this guide the steps that will allow us to lower the backrests of the rear seats of the Fiat 500, following the instructions below. First of all, we open the rear hatch of the trunk and start removing the trunk shelf; then we lower the headrests completely on the backrests, as shown in the video. At this point, we press the lever on the side of the backrest, lowering it to recline it; in this way, we will significantly increase the cargo volume of our car. We raise the backrests again to put them back in position!

Handbrake adjustment on Ford Ecosport

First remove the plastic profile at the base of the gear lever. To do this, slightly widen the side edges and carefully lift it to release it. There is no need to remove it completely, just move it forward to avoid bother. Now remove the plastic center console around the handbrake by first working from the rear to release it and lifting it until the brake lever passes. Also in this case it is not necessary to remove it completely but, paying attention to the connected cables, it can be stowed in front of the passenger seat. At this point we notice that at the base of the handbrake lever, on the front, we find a nut. By acting on it, with a 10 wrench, we can adjust the brake force, increasing it by turning the nut clockwise, or decreasing it by turning it counterclockwise. Once adjusted, the center console can be repositioned first, pressing lightly to engage it, and then the profile of the gearbox base.
